We had heard that Ron Paul had raised a million dollars toward the end of the quarter. Today Marc Ambinder is reporting that he raised $5.08M in the third quarter. Marc calls this "real money" and qualifies Ron Paul is positioned to be a "giant killer."
Fred, on the other hand, raised over $8M while only being a candidate for one month of the three months.
There is no question that Ron Paul's supporters are enthusiastic, but that does not mean that there are that many of them. The finance report does not include how many donors made up Ron Paul's contributions. (Fred has over 70,000 individual contributors).

well they gave actually gave the number of $40 for the average donation.
5 mil / ( n people ) = 40
so
n = 5 mil / 40 = 125,000 donors
